how do you get a url to open to a new browser window and still have the
site you are looking from still be up.(hope that makes sense) it's late and I'm dozin' fast. I thougt these computers were supposed to make our live easier. Thanks in advance. Peace.

I think you should try "_blank" as the parameter. so the new url will open to a blank new page, instead of the parent one. "http://www.flashkit.com/, _blank" ; such

didn't work, anyone else know?

my code might be wrong, but you should work on the _.... parameters. good luck

Well, I'm almost positive it's done with JavaScript. Both windows would be up, but the original would be foucsed on. I don't know the script, but you should try searching for the focus(); action (javascript). If this is what you want, I think that's the way to achieve it. If you just want to open a new window, (whether it goes on top of the current one or not) you could use this on a button:

code:

---

on (release) {

getURL("http://www.flashkit.com", _blank);

}

---

or this on a frame:

code:

---

getURL("http://www.flashkit.com", _blank);

---

if you want to open a new window, and have focus on that, use this script on a button:

code:

---

on (release) {

getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.flashkit.com','PopUp'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");

}

---

NOTE: BE SURE NOT TO WRAP ANY OF THOSE LINES (ABOVE)

and this on a frame:

code:

---

getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.flashkit.com','PopUp'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");

}

---

NOTE: BE SURE NOT TO WRAP ANY OF THOSE LINES (ABOVE)

NICE you rock, you rule! thanks for the help.

javascript would ONLY be needed if you wanted to size or position the new browser window... otherwise yoru first code getURL using the _blank parameter would be correct.
